there is new energy to harness and new jobs to be created, new schools to build and threats to meet and alliances to repair. the road ahead will be long. our climb will be steep. we may not get there in one year, or even one term, but america -- i have never been more hopeful than i am tonight that we will get there. i promise you: we as a people will get there. there will be setbacks and false starts. there are many who won't agree with every decision or policy i make as president, and we know that government can't solve every problem. but i will always be honest with you about the challenges we face. i will listen to you, especially when we disagree. and, above all, i will ask you join in the work of remaking this nation the only way it's been done in america for 221 years -- block by block, brick by brick, callused hand by callused hand. what began 21 months ago in the depths of winter must not end on this autumn night. this victory alone is not the change we seek -- it is only the chance for us to make that change. and that cannot happen if we go back to the way things were. it cann

coal is 30% of where the energy is coming from. we can actually do a lot of things. all of the solar panels we have out here. this is where we are going in the long run. there's things we can do to generate more revenue to support our community colleges. >> thank you. k-12 education is a function of state government and the federal government, ungratefully. the federal government provides a% of the funding that goes into local schools. with that 8% comes 70% of the mandates and stipulations and paperwork that tied the hands of local schools, teachers, administrators. with regards to what the federal government should do, your question is very relevant with low risk pools. rural schools are having the problem, what is the future like the navajo station or the coronado power plant which the epa is trying to shut down. if you want to affect local schools, and allow the epa to move ahead and impose restrictions that will force the power plants to shut down. it is devastation in a local community. we have seen that happen in my home town of snowflake. we have a paper mill

but the there was an energy on the ground. in terms of what i have learned and experienced in the last year-and-a-half, it truly has been -- the biggest thing in terms of our primary is that it was really a testament to the grassroots. in any other cycle, what happened in the republican primary could not have happened. in any ordinary year, the should have been a very easy lay down. we were out-spent three-one. when we started, i was a 2%. >> the primaries back in march. you may not be sitting here. >> thank god for small mirles. >> youublished an opinion piece in "the wall street *" this week where you say that america is that a crisis point. can you explain that to? >> i think we are at a fiscal and economic cliff. i think we have pursued government spending programs that have created a debt that is out of control. at the convention come after talking, i went home to my hotel at 1:30 a.m. and i was looking on my iphone at twitter. and the comedian paa pound stone had sent a tweet that evening. i don't know her, but she said

so there is an opportunity on immigration reform and tax reform and energy. and then i could put a whole series if you made a decision that we will benefit from learning from this election. >> i'd like to respond to that by pointing out a lot of these vick toirs senate candidates ran as far as from barack obama as it was possible to do and still be in the same party. today just for depun google or go to youtube and watch the last ten heidi hite camp ads in north dakota for the keystone pipeline, for increasing coal production, for offshore drilling for oil, for fixing obama care. joe donnelly, okay he beat richard mourdock in indiana but the idea that people were voting for keeping obama care as is and his spending agenda, it's not backed up by the data. joe donnelly is as prolife, promarriage as you can be and be a democrat and be in the party. look at tim cain who was chairman of the d.n.c. two years ago. he's basically running ads criticizing barack obama on raising tax on small business in virginia. so i don't think it's going to wash to say this is an ac
